Emma’s Reviews > For the Love of Women: Uprooting and Healing Misogyny in America > Status Update

This chapter on government opens with the Anita Hill story. I had always been told she had viciously accused Clarence Thomas because she was a slutty liberal. According to Greco, that isn’t the case. I think it’s telling that she took and passed a polygraph but Justice Thomas refused. Also Biden’s behavior was atrocious. The difference between narratives is astounding.

I don’t know how it would be possible to fairly compensate stay at home parents in economic terms as she’s suggesting. I think perhaps what would be better is a change in how we view money instead of turning domestic work into monetary terms.

This chapter on misogyny in healthcare is so sad. It’s hard to wrap my brain around how deep and seemingly mindless it goes if everything she says is true. I’m not sure about some of her solutions like free menstrual products and the Paid Prenatal Leave law but that’s more discomfort due to how I was raised than anything. Definitely disagree even more with my friend who thinks male doctors are better.
